"I thought you said this was a small media company?", I asked him."It is small compared to BBC I guess", he said flippantly."You lied to me", I said to him."I didn't", he said trying to look innocent."Admit it.

"Did you arrange for the lawyer?", asked Charlie on the phone. She said she wasn't afraid of Dane but she knew in her heart that Dane is going to come for her and she wasn't a fool to not be prepared."I will call", I said."You better do it right away.

He gave a look to Jeff that said get out of here. He left me then and there without any adieu. I sighed here it was the moment I dreaded most in my life and dreams. He stood there with eyes that resembled the iciness of glaciers. Only his gaze softened when he caught an occasional glimpse of Angel."Hello, Dane. It is good to see you", I said honestly. I never thought I would be seeing him this soon. I always thought of meeting him through my daughter who would have been a teen at least. But God works with his plans often toppling ours in the process."Is it? I can't believe it", he said."Angel can you wear your headphones for some time?", I asked her. I didn't want her to listen to our conversation even though she couldn't understand half of what we said. She obeyed me without a question and I took a sigh of relief that she didn't question my authority in the presence of her father. " I didn't expect to see you here. I was called by Jeff.
